Quote:ring designs were as individual as the people who wore them

I got the impression looking through my book on the Snettisham horde, that many signet rings were mass produced or quickly produced, with engravings done with small tools very similar to Dremel tools. When magnified, you can see the cuts and the way they were just virtually hacked out on common themes.
